On spanking

Was thinking about a conversation I had the other day with Curtis about spanking children and the phrases we use around it. He broke down the phrase "beat the shit outta you" and I cried on the inside as he spoke. Think about how much pain and suffering one would have to inflict on another to really make that happen. And this is what we say to our children and then we try to convince them that we love them. Sorry. No fly.

  1. I was told that alot! and then the shit being beat out of you statement was reinforced with "you ain't shit!". I cry with you. I think these are the reason we should be gentle with people you never know what they have been through.

  2. Yes I agree. We should be very gentle. We never know what others have and are going through.
